In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Beat the butter and sugars together until combined and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating between additions and scraping down the bowl as necessary. Beat in the vanilla. Add the flour on low in three additions, just until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Using a cookie scoop, or a spoon, scoop out about 2 TBSP of dough per cookie, leaving at least 2" of space between cookies. Press in 5-6 m&m's on the top.

Bake for 12-14 minutes...the side will look done and the middles will still be soft. Cool on the tray for 2 minutes, then remove to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

I love a thin, bendy, chocolate chip cookie myself. Adding the M&M's and creating an ice cream sandwich...great idea, especially with the ice cream you chose. Glad you had a great time in Seattle and with Teresa.

I love everything about this post! The cookies look DELICIOUS!! The photos are beautiful. ADDING ICE CREAM? SUCH a fantastic idea!!! And the fact that it doubles as a breath mint? How could a girl say no?!
